Will be interested to see the results, as far as tearing in video scenes prone to it &or tearing tests 11.10 is the 1st release I've never been able to totally remove, though it extends to all sessions.

Interesting about the 'latency regression', there is something i've seen on a nvidia laptop that's quite obvious in 11.10/unity, though I gather it doesn't bother many others (or doesn't happen

It's caused by what seems to be a slight delay in Powermizer's 'adaptive performance' mode clocking up when needed. Never saw before 11.10. Most obvious here when trying to move a window when the performance mode is at 0 (lowest
Windows 'stick' for a second till the adapter is upclocked

Have no idea if related, time will tell I guess..
